- With Jonathan Jones out, Gonzalez and Jack Jones were the first-choice outside corner, with Myles Bryant getting first reps in the slot.

Bill Murray and fifth-round rookie Atonio Mafi saw the most work at right guard, which will be Onwenu’s spot once he’s healthy enough to return from offseason ankle surgery.
